TT #50

I spent most of last week in Chicago with my family. Two days were spent on Michigan Avenue shopping with my daughter and niece. Below is a list of some of the shops we visited.

1. Guess
2. Bebe
3. Coach
4. Macy's
5. Saks
6. Gap
7. Banana Republic
8. Abercrombie & Fitch
9. Aeropostale
10. Chicago Cubs Clubhouse Shop
11. Forever 21
12. Hollister
13. Sephora

I couldn't list them all so this is just a selection of some of the shops I remember. They have a wonderful time and are currently planning how they can live in a Chicago highrise overlooking Michigan Ave or Lake Michigan. I told them they had to go to college and find a very high paying career. Maybe, it will be insentive to do well in high school.

Back from Chicago

Morning, all,
Just got back from a week in Chicago and I’m glad to be home. Don’t get me wrong, I love the city but I was ready for the quiet life again. We took my almost fourteen y/o daughter and my fifteen y/o niece with us and they had a blast. They absolutely loved Michigan Ave. What teenage girl doesn’t want to shop all day? We had plans to go to zoos, museums, the aquarium but they just wanted to shop. We did manage to go to The Hancock Observatory and Navy Pier. The view was fabulous.

My dh is from the suburbs of Chicago so I’ve been in Chicago before so we left this trip up to the girls. They thoroughly enjoyed the trip and so did we. My dh didn’t complain once about all the shopping. He’s so sweet!

Hope you all enjoyed your weekend.
